October 2021

“Great location and short walking distance into Weymouth.”

Had issues with overall cleanliness with the house requiring a general deep clean. Only one functioning shower in the en suite upstairs so not ideal if you are a group of friends sharing as there is a bath with a shower attachment in family bathroom which is not sufficient to be a shower. Had issues with pressure of en-suite shower and issues with leaking toilet; plumber came to address and left mess and small drill piece in the bathroom. Had no update from Sykes Cottages about whether or not ...

Had issues with overall cleanliness with the house requiring a general deep clean. Only one functioning shower in the en suite upstairs so not ideal if you are a group of friends sharing as there is a bath with a shower attachment in family bathroom which is not sufficient to be a shower. Had issues with pressure of en-suite shower and issues with leaking toilet; plumber came to address and left mess and small drill piece in the bathroom. Had no update from Sykes Cottages about whether or not we could use it and had to call twice for an update and was told they would call back. No call back with an update received from Sykes Cottages and the mess in en suite was not addressed for remainder of holiday.

“Windows dirty,handles on some doors and windows loose making it difficult to open windows.”

Shower in ensuite lacking pressure, cobwebs in various places, telly poor signal apart from that very well equipped kitchen and very spacious bedrooms.

“The house proved to be a great choice for our holiday.”

It had all facilities we needed and was very safe for the 2 young children in our party. Being only a 15 minute walk to Weymouth centre and beach it was perfectly located.

“We loved the outside space, cute garden, sunny all day.”

I liked the fact that we didn't have to separate our 'rubbish' for recycling. It was very strangely bliss!!!!! We didn't have lots of recycling bins everywhere. The other thing I liked, as the driver, was being able to park outside our front door!

“The Wi fi is effectively unusable.”

When you are offering less than 2MBpS at a range of less than 5 feet from the router (precisely measured), please don't advertise a property as having WiFi. It doesn't. So much of people's lives now are online and this just doesn't come close to being functional. As a result, the cost of the holiday increases significantly as we had 6 x 4G dataplans being used for the duration of the holiday, which used up all the monthly data over only 3 days. If you're staying for one or two weeks, you could potentially see the cost of the holiday increase by several hundred pounds.

“Dvd player was not compatible with TV.”

Mentioned this to your office but heard no more. General cleanliness was ok. We always clean over kitchen surfaces when we go anywhere as a matter of course. As we found crumbs and bits in the drawers with covid in mind we ended up cleaning all drawers and utensils as well. When we stripped bed clothes to come away I found brown marks on one duvet in back bedroom, stains on one of the pillow protectors and a stain on the mattress prpcter in the front bedroom. These were old stains and not of our making. We love Sandpipers and are sure that the owners would not be impressed with our findings

“Lovely house close to the beach and town centre.”

A bit of a squeeze with 6 people, not enough sofa space and only 1 shower for us all to use,( so took a while to get ready to go out!) Surprised no iron provided, even though there is an ironing board. We had a great week and would go back to Sandpiper but probably only if 4 of us.

“Lovely location.”

Only 10 minutes walk to harbour, shops, pubs and seafront. Nice and quiet.

Mrs Beckway October 2019

“We were very happy with the cottage but we do feel that the main family bathroom should have had a shower curtain or a shower screen.”

The rest of the family had to go up to the second floor en-suite for a shower, which they would not had done if they could have showered on the first floor bathroom. We also feel that the shower should have been wall mounted. Otherwise we were happy with the house and facilities.

“We all had a lovely stay in this home.”

It was very clean and and with clear instructions on the use of everything. Extra little touches like dvds, books and games within the property and good quality bedding and towels made our time there more comfortable. It is situated in a quiet residential area within a 10 minute walk to the centre of Weymouth. Can highly recommend this property and I would not hesitate in staying there again. Thanks to the owners who had thought of everything possible to ensure that our stay was perfect.

Very clean and very well furnished house, very quiet residential area but centrally located - to the city center about 700m, to the beach about 800m, we will be book again next year again, because we are very satisfied
